Benchmarks
| Benchmarks | Score |
|---|---|
| Intelligence Index Artificial Analysis's composite score across about ten independent evaluations (reasoning, knowledge, coding, agentic work, long context), run the same way for every model. The strongest models score in the 50s. | 45.4 |
| SciCode Writing code to solve research-level problems in physics, chemistry, biology and maths, checked by tests. | 52.1% |
| GPQA Diamond Graduate-level questions in biology, physics and chemistry, written to be resistant to web search. PhD holders in the relevant field score around 65%, so scores above that indicate genuine domain reasoning rather than recall. | 92.8% |
| Humanity's Last Exam About 2,500 expert-written questions at the frontier of human knowledge across maths, science and the humanities. Even the best models answer well under two thirds. | 43.1% |
| MMMU-Pro (visual reasoning) College-level questions that require reading charts, diagrams and figures, with distractors that defeat text-only guessing. | 82.8% |
| Long-context reasoning (AA-LCR) Questions that require reasoning across several long documents at once (around 100k tokens), not just finding one passage. | 80.3% |
Independent evaluations by Artificial Analysis, run the same way for every model, at the reasoning setting shown. Percentages unless marked as an index. Source
